Thursday, June 29th, 2006

The Internet has come full circle. Remember the days of watching commercials online? Well, Ad Critic is a shell of it’s former self and watching video online is so 2005.

Welcome to 2006 where clicking through hundreds of print ads is the new hot past time. AdsoftheWorld.com has over 1700 (and growing constantly) print ads from around the world. Some are sexy, some are funny and some are downright scary.

If you’re bored, the site is definitely worth a few clicks.

Ashlee Simpson in Playboy?

Wednesday, June 28th, 2006

Rumor has it that Playboy has offered Ashlee Simpson close to $4 million to pose in an upcoming issue of Playboy. This is a great career move for the younger sister of Jessica as it will differentiate the two. Also, think about how Playboy blew up the careers of other famous women like Tiffany, Lisa Guerrero and Paris Hilton. Playboy is a great place to take a mediocre career to the next level–a mediocre career where everyone has seen your boobs.

World Cup News: Beer Shortage Feared

Wednesday, June 28th, 2006

What happens when you get hundreds of thousands of thirsty soccer fans together in one place? Beer shortages. Throughout Germany, bars, tents and breweries are struggling to meet the demand of World Cup fans as they consume nearly 200 pints per minute. That’s a lot of beer, even for me.

Girls of the World Cup

Friday, June 23rd, 2006

Forget about international competition and national pride, the true essence of the World Cup can be summed up with 2 words: Hot Chicks!

The female fans of World Cup soccer are passionate, dedicated and seriously fun to look at. If the World Cup were decided by the hotness of their female fans (and it should be) Brazil would still win with Germany, Sweden and Australia battling it out for second.

Electronic Drinking Game

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

For too long, drinking games have been stuck in the past. Antiquated items like cards, cups and ping pong balls have been the staple of drinking games since moonshine was invented. Leave it to the Danish to take bring drinking games to the 21st century with the Sprintz Shots Drinking Game.

An electronic coaster counts the time it takes you to take a shot, down to a tenth of a second! The set which includes 2 glasses, a coaster and batteries costs about $40 and will easily pay for itself the first time your dumb friend passes out trying to break your high score.

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

I know we’ve been talking a lot about beer bottle opening lately, but it’s obviously a life necessity and apparently the Germans are the kings of it. This blog is in German, but pictures tell the whole story: 1000 ways to open a beer. From mailboxes and Nazi helmets to seat belts and Tabasco sauce, these Germans know how to have a good time.

Have Drill, Will Drink

Friday, June 16th, 2006

Remember that cordless drill collecting dust in your garage? Put it to work getting you drunk with the Boatblender.

The name is a bit misleading since you can use the device anywhere, but it’s basically a drill bit attached to a water bottle. Attach a drill and viola, instant portable blender.

It seems to me that any DIYer worth his salt could build one on his own, but for us lazy drinkers, you can purchase a kit on their site for under $30 (drill not included).

The Musical Fruit No More

Thursday, June 15th, 2006

Is there anything science can’t do? Scientists in Venezuela have invented a fartless bean. No longer will my dad have an excuse during hot dogs and beans night.

It makes you wonder, with all of the diseases and other scientific hurdles still facing man, what compels a scientist to study the gaseous nature of baked beans?
